Bohn helps Boulder’s furry homeless friends

Once a year, without fail, I see Colorado athletic director Mike Bohn when he’s not fund-raising or politicking on behalf of the program. Instead Bohn represented the department giving back to the community.

The event was Saturday’s annual Humane Society of Boulder Valley fund-raiser, held at the Coors Events Center. CU contributed 18 luxury seats to the Cal game for auction as well as numerous basketball and paraphernalia packages.

It also speaks volumes about the difficulty of this year’s home schedule when the only non-league football game up for auction is Cal.
